I knew something wasn't right when "that person" in the office who would usually blast 'Friday' every week on her laptop speakers didn't do so this past Friday. Then I had found out that it was taken down from YouTube because there is a legal battle between Rebecca's parents and Ark Media of who has creative control over the song. HA! Don't they both realize it was considered the worst song of all time? I'd say whoever wins those rights is the actual loser, but I digress... Meet Black Becky . She decided to capitalize on that [...]

A bit late with this just a bit but surfin around I came across this and decided to post. My sis told me she wasn't that bad of a singer I should have listen then. Her voice is sweet and innocence but yet when it goes to the chorus you hear a taste of the power that she is holding back. Why is she holding back? I don't know. It is Japan, a country where they like their woman meek and helpless. (Is [...]
Hello Slowcousticals, I bring you a weekend playlist because I don't have a feature post (let's just be honest here). There isn't even a compromise though because there is some really great music included. If you are a regular reader or are a member of the Last.fm group, you know I am a bit of a playlist fiend. So enough with the blather and let's get to your weekend soundtrack! Slowcoustic Saturday Playlist (November Edition) ~ Wonder Stranger [...]
I have been a bit lax on the label playlist feature here on Slowcoustic so I noticed that the good folks at IODA have quite a bit of content from Shameless Records available. Hell, it is time to represent Alberta here - Canadian label action from my own province! They have a pretty eclectic roster, with my clear stand out favourite being The Wheat Pool - but that's how I roll (all families have their favourite child, right?). In reading over the info on their website, you know that 2002 was the official start [...]

Come on baby, do the locomotion! Be Your Own Pet - Becky thanks to luke-lebanon-fill image via who the hell could ever remember that?!?
Como ya les informamos anteriormente , el grupo Be Your Own Pet anunció su separación y, antes de enterrarse para siempre (no se preocupen, son unos adolescentes que podrán ver nuevamente en otras bandas) decidieron lanzar una única canción. Este es el video de "Becky": Vía: Stereogum Comparte esta anotación
What better way to say goodbye than, well, murder? Rage-filled, blood-spattered murder. As you know, the kids in Be Your Own PET will be officially disbanding after a few final shows , but we'll always have this visually-stimulating end-piece. "Becky" was removed from their last record because it was too violent and dangerous, which is total bullshit. This video, directed by Nylon magazine's Marvin Scott Jarrett, is a wonderful send-off for a band that's really too young to quit, what with only two records under the belt. (mp3) [...]
FINAL BE YOUR OWN PET VIDEO - "BECKY" Quick little update today, since I'm in the process of moving, but the recently disbanded Cannibal Cheerleader favorite Be Your Own Pet has just released what one can only imagine is their final music video for their Get Awkward standout "Becky". Here's the video below, viva BYOP, and hope that we see more of Jemina Pearl in the future! Be Your Own Pet - "Becky"

Holy hell. I went to the most epic, beautiful, awe inspiring wedding this weekend. One of my best friends Becky (Co Designer of Velvet Leaf ) married her "childhood & high school sweetheart/soulmate/endallbeal l." And oh ya his name is Jordan, he's freakin amazing. I'd actually never met him till this weekend and they've been together for 7 seven years. He's been in school in santa barbara and saving the world in his spare time. So seeing them like this together for the first time was amazing. Basically this wedding had everything that mattered: Wedding on [...]

The legend of Michael Brown is pretty well know among pop music geeks of a certain age. He was a precocious 16-year old music student in 1966 when he formed the Left Banke and wrote, arranged and recorded both "Walk Away Renee" and "Pretty Ballerina." Both of those songs were hits, and it seemed like the Left Banke, and Michael Brown, were on their way. But to those to whom much is given, much trouble is also given, and Brown, never comfortable on stage, and perhaps (unfairly) feeling the band could not keep up with him, soon split, and a [...]
